Eelco I personally find you sticking your head in the sand highly problematic. The blatent conflict of interest between 1. you as a foundation chair. 2. you working for Detsys. 3. Detsys (potentially) doing work for Anduril.

Can't you honestly just answer the question like the rest of the foundation did?

I would also like to note that option 2, people being forced to leave the community, is already happening

Yesterday and today, about a dozen people messaged me directly that they were also concerned about this power struggle, but didn't want to speak up out of fear of being doxxed or publicly humiliated like I was.

I'm curious how many people have silently left over the years because they don't want to endure harassment, moderation action, or "the drama". I was one of them in 2021.

Jon, where you work is something people can easily find out, because you published it to LinkedIn.

Although true, it also implies investigation into my life beyond the Nix ecosystem.

And asking to become board observer while at the same time leading a discussion on gender minority representation in the sponsorship selection committee was bound to generate that kind of reaction.

I don't think there's a voice for "keep Nix about technology" portion of the community.

And Ron did ask to focus on the bigger picture, instead of picking out individual comments, which you yourself decided to disregard.

I did frame it the larger picture in https://discourse.nixos.org/t/objection-to-explicit-gender-minority-preference-in-nixos-sponsorship-policy/42968

having seats for groups that are not “first priority is the success of Nix”, but rather “first priority is the success of your faction” is a mis-aligned incentive model for a software project.

I don't think there's a voice for "keep Nix about technology" portion of the community.

You don't get to claim that when you're complaining you can't bring politics (military sponsorships) into the project. Everyone was very happy not having to deal with this until it was forced onto the community.

It is my impression that we have these kinds of voice in the foundation board already

Yes, but it's creating a "board vs community" narrative. E.g.

Everyone was very happy not having to deal with this until it was forced onto the community.

The discussions never were about that. The foundation already was about "keep Nix about technology".

The foundation was so strongly only about that, that it was not equipped with the means to react to a problematic situation where a clash in values of the community would happen.

What happened is that, at first through inaction, the foundation signalled that it was fine with values that are controversial.

The Foundation AFAIUI exists for the sole purpose of being a solid bedrock for the Nix project and its ecosystem to live and prosper. With the past events, trust in the ability of the board members was breached, twice. And I have yet to read and reason about the last 12 hours of happenings.

So, saying at this point in time that this is all about keeping it about the Nix technology is a moot point: keeping the current status quo means that weapons manufacturers are a-okay. The status quo has been moved already.
